Thats the kind of thing you always see in big quakes. Its a load of energy being released.
UPDATE: BBC 23:10GMT: More from the Tokyo Electric Power Company: It says the ability to control pressure in some of the reactors at Fukushima-Daini has been lost. Pressure is stable inside the reactors, but rising in the containment vessels, a company spokesman says.
#Tokyo Electric Power Co. is reporting that they have lost control of the pressure in their No. 1 & 2 nuclear reactors with temps rising.
Tsunami actually did cause some damage in cali
They need to form a really long chain of people with buckets...
SPOILER ALERT: JOKE WITH POOR TASTE COMING UP
... they have enough water at least.
Japan just got hit with another 6.8 after shock
6.9 aftershock???This is just insane. Imagine the storm that would happen if this happened off the California coast?
So let me get this straight! Japan is a small country that is known to get so many earthquakes they actually created a monster called Godzilla to help explain to the children why the buildings were all smashed, and yet no one has the sense to move from there? I thought Asians were smarter than us.
Where was the 6.6?
The 8.9 was 80 miles east of a city, several thousand feet under the ocean, and it did all that it did. If it was centered under a city....
My point is that the 6.6 could have been as damaging depending on location.
Probably some massive tectonic plate slippage. I wonder if we will get an update by satellite how much the earth moved?18 aftershocks
6.4, 6.4, 6.8, 7.1, 6.3, 6.3, 5.8, 5.9, 6.3, 6.1, 6.1, 5.9, 5.8, 5.7, 5.6, 5.9, 6.2
Probably using a 24hr clock. That would be 8:41 PM.
Don't you know?
It's a sign of the end times.
Polluted waters, war in the middle east, volcanoes, earthquakes, global warming...
The date of the rapture is 5/21/11!

No, the official Kyodo news agency reported that many are missing.
What does Jodie Foster have to do with this?
Reactor design makes a difference. Many newer designs can suffer catastrophic heat without the same environmental concerns.
holy watch this vid:

failed nuclear test imo. sushibreaths played with fire and burned their own asses
Wow...
'Megathrust' moved island 8 feet, sped up Earth's rotation
1.6 microseconds may not seem like much, but for the mass of the earth... that's one of a lot of energy!The force of the quake was so strong that it moved the island of Honshu 8 feet to the east, said USGS geophysicist Ken Hudnut. It sped up the Earth's rotation by 1.6 microseconds, according to NASA.
Now I'll bet that's a temporary change, because of the displaced sea water. It it is a permanent change, I'm not sure i understand the physics that would allow that without the earth shrinking a tiny bit.
I'm assuming that's 1.6 microseconds per day. It would take 1712 years for a second.
Wow, the land he's on used to be part of Tokyo Bay.
They did a pretty good job with the structural engineering. It's the tsunami that hurt them.

Awesome footage...not seen on TV

Wow
Wow...
Good footage:
one day the earth is just gonna say it and consume us with one giant wave and it'd be like we never existed
